Answer:SAME SIGNS 1. Add.
2. Sum is positive if both are positive; negative if both are negative.
5 + 8 = 13 –5 + (–8) = –13
DIFFERENT SIGNS
1. Subtract the absolute values.
2. Answer is sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.
5 + (–8) = –3 –5 + 8 = 3
Find each sum. 1. –4 + (–8)
–12
4. –16 + 11 –5
7. –49 + (–32)
–49 –81 –32 –81
2. 14 + 16 30
5. 28 +(–42) –14
8. 23 + (–23) 0
3. –43 + (–12) –55
6. 75 + (–5) 70
9. 86 + (–18)
86 68–18 68

1. Multiply or divide.
2. The answer is positive if the signs are the same (both positive or both negative); negative if the signs are different (one positive and one negative).
–5 x(–8) = 40 40 4 = 10
16 x(–3) = –48 –20 10 = –2
